A letter from a strange woman

"Love is a matter of one person, but love is a matter of two people. Therefore, I love you, and it has nothing to do with you." At the age of thirteen, the moment she first met a man, she fell in love at first sight and couldn't extricate herself. In the torrent of time, that ultimate love has only increased. She committed herself to him three times and waited for his call all her life. She picked up the cigar butts he had smoked, touched the doorknobs he touched, and even shed dust for their children. He knew nothing about all this, and he couldn't even remember the face of that familiar yet strange woman.

Before dying, she was full of infatuation all her life, and wrote a desperate anonymous letter, recording this extraordinary love. It can be vaguely seen that she is lying on the deck with a bleak fate, and the crystal waves pushed her into nothingness. She said softly: I want you to know that my life always belongs to you, but you don’t care about my life. Always in the dark... Dear, who will give you a bouquet of white roses on your birthday?
